Westin W6 ST5 Fluorocarbon 50m 0.14mm 1.3kg Clear

Westin W6 ST5 Fluorocarbon 50m 0.14mm — Maximum Suppleness for Finesse Fishing

The Westin W6 ST5 (Suppleness Tier 5) Fluorocarbon in 0.14mm / 1.3kg is engineered for anglers who demand the softest, most manageable fluorocarbon leader material available — without sacrificing knot strength or abrasion resistance.

Soft, Supple and Easy to Knot

Rated ST5 — the highest suppleness grade in the W6 range — this fluorocarbon is designed for maximum flexibility. Its exceptionally soft and pliable construction makes knot tying straightforward even in cold or wet conditions, while Westin's exclusive production process ensures the knot retains full strength once cinched. Low line memory means the leader lays flat and straight right off the spool.

Slim Diameter, Incredible Abrasion Resistance

Despite its fine 0.14mm diameter and light 1.3kg breaking strain, this line delivers outstanding abrasion resistance thanks to Westin's precision manufacturing. The slim profile reduces water resistance for a fast sink rate, making it ideal for delicate freshwater presentations where a near-invisible, quickly sinking leader gives you a natural edge.
